"What do you mean you wanted bread, I distinctly heard you say, bag get and lots of them"
Ramp stàff gathered to witness something that had long been considered just fanciful tales of their elders. But here it was, right before their eyes. A pilot. Lifting a bag! Himself!! But wait! Was that not someone else's hands beneath the bag? Disappointed, they turned for home. No miracles today.

"They are unaccompanied lost baggage, does anyone know a Mr and Mrs Windrush?"
Caught red-handed shop lifting in Duty Free, an embarrassed Hyphen-Smythe surrenders the last of the contents of his voluminous leather coat.

Honorable mention to Traffic is er was for "Qantas staff shout "Huzzah!!" as they watch the CEO heroically adjust his pay packet."
Grand award to Kiltrash for "Trying to look innocent Smithy delivers the sandpaper for the Ashes test match later in the year... he expects to use a lot of it..."
